Influenced by Alfred Stieglitz and Ansel Adams, and amicable with his contemporary Magnum photographers, Ronis was the first French photographer to contribute to \u003ci\u003eLife\u003c\/i\u003e magazine. In the 1950s, MoMA curator Edward Steichen featured Ronis--along with Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Doisneau, and Brassaï--in the groundbreaking exhibitions \u003ci\u003eThe Family of Man \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eFive French Photographers\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThroughout his life, this powerhouse of humanist photography kept meticulous records of his work, curating each era into albums, which are reproduced here for the first time. Timeless photographs of postwar France and its inhabitants are accompanied by the photographer's original observations and comments, framing the images within their technical and historical context. Photography historian Matthieu Rivallin's critical perspective adds nuance to the photographer's notes, and the ensemble is a groundbreaking and definitive reference on the myriad aspects of the artists' immense career and an essential volume for all photography aficionados. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMajor twentieth-century photographer \u003cb\u003eWilly Ronis\u003c\/b\u003e (1910-2009) contributed to \u003ci\u003eLife\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eVogue\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eTime\u003c\/i\u003e, and he received numerous international awards.
